Summary
If clothes are an extension of our bodies, to add glory to them, what should we think about beautifying ourselves more directly? Is there a principled difference between clothes, makeup, skincare, and even cosmetic surgery? Is it vain to mitigate aging, or is it just like treating a disease? How will people modify their bodies in the postmillennial future? This is a public episode.
